This is a place to write the project report

We need a description of how we generated our sample plots.


Questions for USFS
What n value did USFS use, 110 or 64?
Will we be getting new graph data? Based on land use?


- Enhance and build upon generated report
- Build some context within the presentation and report to anticipate questions
- Sit down as a class, go through the entire report, find errors, questions, areas for improvement...
- Create an outline: order/skelton (3 Apr)
- Develop a list of potential questions audience members or readers might ask - and find the answers.

General Timeline:
Content development
Layout development (some overlap)
Presentation development

Report
Aesthetics: Design, charts, tables, graphics, layout...the looks of the report
Lisa
Hannah

Content: Writing, data
- Distribute sections for writing
- Have one person in charge of editing for tone/grammar/unity
- "specialists" for presentation would stem from those writing each section
- develop "sidebar info" once layout team has a better idea
